what?..so, you don't like U models any more,eh?

You're right about that. And a dump valve to dump the air on that back axle is really handy with a spread too when you get in a tight spot. If you don't already have a spare switch in the truck to wire a dump valve and you have to put one in, i'd put an indicator light on it so you won't forget it's dumped and take off down the road with it. That's hard on tires, especially if you have to slam on the brakes.

neat pictures indeed!

The only good news is Fox news in my opinion.

I was feeling your pain Mark, until Randy made me laugh!Seriously, what a f#**ing idiot this guy must be (not randyp,I mean the dispatcher). 41Chevy is right, that's the only way it could be done. That's the dumbest stuff i've ever seen,5 stops in 2 hours? 7 stops in 3 hours? Bay City to Traverse City in 30 minutes?..well, that might be doable, I think it's only about 125 or 130 miles across there. But you could barely get 5 stops off in 2 hours in Gladys,Va. where there's no traffic, if you had to go to 5 different places,open doors,back to a dock,wait for some hateful a-holes to get around to unloading their shit they ordered but now seem to have never heard of,unload,get paperwork signed,pull out, close doors,go to next stop and repeat the process. Tell them to use full power on the bitch slapping beam randyp. Here's a picture of a girl in a car Mark,you deserve something good after all that fuster-cluck!

No way Rob's coming back- I talked to him on the phone and he's very busy at his new job. Said he was out of the high-stress radar business and was now loving his new job as a dispatcher/trip planner for some trucking operation that works out of Indiana. He said it was a piece of cake compared to his old job, nothing to it. He said he shipped a load out with 18 stops on it all the way from Detroit up to Traverse City, and the driver was going to get them off in 3 days.( )

wow, never seen such from facebook.

...or this one...

how about this one- it's better than Ed's-

that's not a problem

OK,deal.

Well here's some more! Now THIS is a truck- this is the Diamond T I like best, big and bad looking,eh? Some Emeryvilles- A hot babe...just thought i'd throw that in...

Pretty much the same around here- corn was terrible, except for some low grounds, lot of folks cut it for silage instead of grain, but the soybean fields around here are looking pretty good.

Dang it!..now I could never do it, since you asked and even said please...couldn't sleep at night if I did...rats! How about if I just use your face in future projects, no Papa or U-model?

wow, it'll take a huge pot to cook all those beans in!

I like Diamond T's too. Way ahead of their time in looks in my opinion, like the Bighorn. They'd be some of the best looking trucks on the road today. Here's one with an added bonus picture of nocluejoe66.

They must come from up behind the trees somewhere, there's a fence between the rocks and the grassy area along the right side of the picture that goes from the road up to the trees.

thank you very much, i'm sure that will be used in many future photoshop opportunities.

Every picture I took this week seemed to be blurry- I started to just delete them all. I might need to go to Kodiakatronomy school and try to pick up some pointers. Here's those blurry goats on the cliff again- too cloudy and dark for a good picture, the sun is behind them too, but i've only seen them there late in the evening. Took this out of the passenger window going east to show just how steep it is where those goats hang out. Here's some blurry tanks in Connellsville,Pa. Lots of blurry trucks in Connellsville,Pa. I even saw some some blurry bulldozers. Load of styrofoam insulation I picked up in Youngwood, Pa.

I like that old cabover, hope it could be saved or put in the rare truck museum or something.

Mixer trailer from Hank's Truck Pictures 2003 Mack 427 hp 18 speed and 4.56 is very good for hauling 13 meter ( 65,000 lbs )of concrete in mud terrain. Pro-Mix Transport is based at St-Hubert ( 7 miles from Montréal Québec, Canada. )

Thanks for this, I love old truck junkyard type pics- great find!

That's great work Vinny, it's looking good. I wouldn't want to be going 90 mph. on 81 in it either, at least not until the front tires and a steering wheel were on it.

I've been thinking about stopping to look at it but there's always lots of traffic around that exit, gotta climb that hill, didn't know if I could get a trailer in there, wah-wah-wah...

ok...
